> Do you see the "6-7 actual / 8 attempted" thing to be "inevitable", like that's the maximum ratio people can reasonably sustain, or do you think that with better environment and habits, we could/should get up to 8/8? I think a lot of managers on Earth spend a lot of time trying to get folks to 8/8 because that's their job, but that's not a job I'm all that interested in. There are way too many hypotheticals around it. Let's say you don't look at HN for a few and instead keep cranking. Is that extra crank time as productive? If you were on my team I'd want you to be the most productive person you could be, but I'd bet (maybe I'm wrong) that how you communicate with others would be a lot bigger issue than your HN reading time, and we'd probably talk more about that. How you tested might be a bigger issue (I'm assuming you're a dev or designer here). Or how you shipped even though CI failed. In my 15 years of software experience I've seen a lot of folks do a lot of weird stuff at work, but reading a website for 15 minutes has seldom been the main reason they weren't a top performer on the team.
